It is believed that Shengyang Yiwei Decoction （升阳益胃汤， SYD） is effective in regulating the flow of Qi （气）， and can treat various diseases caused by the disorder of the spleen and stomach Qi. In clinical practice， based on the pathological characteristics of children often having insufficient spleen， and adhering to the principle of treating different diseases with the same method， the focus is placed on the core pathogenesis of spleen and stomach Qi disharmony. We use SYD in various pediatric conditions such as allergic rhinitis， post COVID-19 condition， urethral syndrome， and dysfunctional uterine bleeding in adolescence， and emphasize the treatment is flexibly tailored to the symptoms.

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a global malignancy with significant chemoresistance impacting patient prognosis. The pro-tumorigenic role of hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor (HMMR) in LUAD is recognized. This study was designed to investigate the underlying mechanisms by which HMMR affects chemoresistance in LUAD. Bioinformatics presented the expression patterns of HMMR in LUAD patients and the association between HMMR levels and patient survival, followed by qRT-PCR to verify HMMR expression in LUAD tissues and cells. Further, bioinformatics was leveraged to identify the signaling pathways enriched by HMMR and its relevance to glycolytic genes, we also analyzed changes in the glycolytic activity of LUAD cells by manipulating HMMR expression. Stemness was evaluated through cell aggregation assays and Western blot, and drug responsiveness was gauged using CCK-8 assays, alongside flow cytometry for apoptosis analysis. HMMR was highly expressed in LUAD tissues and cells, and this overexpression correlated with poorer prognoses in patients. GSEA showed that HMMR was notably enriched in the glycolysis and gluconeogenesis pathways, correlating positively with the expression of key glycolytic genes. Cellular experiments confirmed that HMMR knockdown notably suppressed aerobic glycolysis in LUAD cells. Moreover, overexpression of HMMR could further enhance the stemness and cisplatin resistance of LUAD cells by stimulating glycolysis. In brief, this study has validated that high levels of HMMR in LUAD are predictive of poor patient prognosis, and that overexpression of HMMR can catalyze aerobic glycolysis, thus promoting stemness and chemoresistance in LUAD cells. Thus, HMMR could be a target for improving chemosensitivity in LUAD.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of platelet-albumin-bilirubin （PALBI） score on the textbook outcome （TO） of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC） after hepatectomy， as well as the association of different PALBI scores before surgery with the achievement of TO after hepatectomy in HCC patients. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the data of HCC patients who underwent hepatectomy in West China Hospital of Sichuan University and Ziyang Central Hospital from January 2013 to January 2022. TO was defined as no serious complication within 30 days after surgery， no death within 90 days， no rehospitalization within 30 days after discharge， no blood transfusion in the perioperative period， RO resection， and no prolongation of hospital stay. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the influencing factors for the achievement of TO after hepatectomy in HCC patients. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot the survival curves of HCC patients， and the Log-rank test was used for comparison. ResultsA total of 3 599 patients were included in this study， among whom 2 369 （65.8%） achieved TO. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that PALBI grade （PALBI grade 2： odds ratio ［OR］=1.562， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 1.308‍ ‍—‍ ‍1.864， P<0.001； PALBI grade 3： OR=2.216， 95%CI： 1.463‍ ‍—‍ ‍3.359， P<0.001） was an independent risk factor for achievement of TO after surgery in HCC patients. The proportion of patients achieving TO decreased with the increase in PALBI grade. Among the patients with PALBI grade 1， 2 or 3， the patients achieving TO accounted for 70.2%， 54.2%， and 38.4%， respectively （χ²=106.295， P<0.001）. The incidence rate of serious complications within 30 days， the mortality rate of patients within 90 days after hepatectomy， readmission rate within 30 days after discharge， perioperative blood transfusion rate， and the rate of prolonged hospital stay all increased with the increase in PALBI grade （all P<0.05）. For the patients achieving TO， the 1-， 3-， and 5-year relapse-free survival rates were 79.5%， 60.6%， and 51.5%， respectively， and the overall survival rates were 92.1%， 80.0%， and 71.1%， respectively； for those who did not achieve TO， the 1-， 3-， and 5-year relapse-free survival rates were 68.5%， 52.7%， and 46.2%， respectively， and the overall survival rates were 83.3%， 66.0%， and 57.1%， respectively. The patients who achieved TO had significantly better relapse-free survival rate and overall survival rate than those who did not achieve TO （χ²=18.936 and 79.371， both P<0.001）. ConclusionPreoperative PALBI grade can affect the achievement of TO after hepatectomy in HCC patients， and it is more difficult for patients with a higher PALBI grade to achieve TO. Preoperative PALBI score can be used to early identify the patients with a high risk of postoperative complications， provide early intervention， and enhance perioperative management， thereby improving the perioperative safety and long-term prognosis of HCC patients after hepatectomy.

Recent progress in targeted metabolic therapy of cancer has been limited by the considerable toxicity associated with such drugs. To address this challenge, we developed a smart theranostic prodrug system that combines a fluorophore and an anticancer drug, specifically 6-diazo-5-oxo-l-norleucine (DON), using a thioketal linkage (TK). This system enables imaging, chemotherapy, photodynamic therapy, and on-demand drug release upon radiation exposure. The optimized prodrug, DON-TK-BM3, incorporating cyanine dyes as the fluorophore, displayed potent reactive oxygen species release and efficient tumor cell killing. Unlike the parent drug DON, DON-TK-BM3 exhibited no toxicity toward normal cells. Moreover, DON-TK-BM3 demonstrated high tumor accumulation and reduced side effects, including gastrointestinal toxicity, in mice. This study provides a practical strategy for designing prodrugs of metabolic inhibitors with significant toxicity stemming from their lack of tissue selectivity.

ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between the occupational noise exposure and arteriosclerosis in mechanical manufacturing workers. Methods A total of 453 employees of a machinery manufacturing enterprise were selected as the study subjects using the judgment sampling method. The noise exposure levels in their workplaces were measured, and their cumulative noise exposure (CNE) was assessed based on the type of job-noise exposure matrix and occupational hazard exposure history. Pure-tone audiometry was performed on the research subjects, and their brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) was measured. Results The CNE was (91±11) dB(A) per year and the median baPWV was 1 278.0 cm/s in the research subjects. The results of the generalized linear regression model analysis showed that for every one dB(A) per year increase in CNE, the baPWV of the general population increased by 0.20% ［95% confidence interval (CI) 0.10%-0.30%, P<0.01］, with an increase of 0.17% in males (95%CI 0.06%-0.28%, P<0.01) and 0.28% in females (95%CI 0.07%-0.49%, P<0.01). Using the hearing loss as an outcome indicator for high intensity noise exposure, the results showed that baPWV increased by 7.04% (95%CI 2.42%-11.87%, P<0.01) in individuals with bilateral hearing loss, and by 9.84% and 6.53% (95%CI 3.07%-17.07% and 2.13%-11.11%, all P<0.01) in individuals with elevated high-frequency hearing thresholds in both ears and in either ear, respectively. There was no significant association in elevated speech-frequency hearing thresholds and arteriosclerosis (P>0.05). Conclusion Occupational noise exposure may increase the risk of arteriosclerosis.
